2026 Camp Series

Our farm is an ecosystem, where we grow a diverse selection of fruits and vegetables. A day at our camp is an opportunity to experience life on a working family farm, a chance to learn new skills, make connections, and have fun!

This year we are offering 3 programs:

Spring Break Camp

We're excited to offer a Spring Break Foodie Farm Camp, for kids aged 6-12. This camp is hosted by our farm team, as well as chef and food educator Cheryl Chang, who will be hosting daily cooking workshops in our farm kitchen. There is a lot to do on a farm in the spring! We will tend to the animals, prepare and plant our gardens, and use our arts & craft skills to make signs and plant markers. And we will cook, bake, and eat together.

Spring Break Foodie Farm Camp, March 23-27, 9am - 3pm, Kids aged 6-12

Cost $435, lunch included

Summer Camps

Our Friends of the Farm Summer Camp series is back, with more offerings, and new workshops. We spend our days outdoors, introducing kids to life on a small-scale family farm. Every day there'll be animals to feed, gardens to tend to, arts & crafts projects, and outdoor games, but each week is different, offering unique workshops taught by our Friends of the Farm.

Friends of the Farm: What to Expect

A day at our camp is a day outside on a working farm, with access to a play structure and outdoor games, and lots of open space for running and playing. We are located in Sechelt, within easy walking distance of the Kinnikinnick forest trails, and beach access points to the Sechelt Inlet.

Each session is led by either Haley Cyr or Michy Stevens, both creative and nature loving human beings. Your kids will have the opportunity to do daily farm chores with our farm team, and each week will focus on different activities related to farming and foraging, or inspired by our surroundings, with 2 special workshops hosted by our Friends of the Farm. Read on to get to know our Camp Leaders and Friends of the Farm!

Meet Our Friends of the Farm

Throughout each camp week, two of our Friends of the Farm will lead us through separate workshops. Each workshop is designed to showcase what we can produce with natural elements. Each one different, and each one fun in its own unique way.

Kelly Sugiyama

Friend of the Farm

Workshop:

Ice Cream Science

Meet Kelly, ice cream maker at Sparrow and Piper Frozen Treats in Elphinstone. She features local and foraged ingredients in her nut-free frozen treats, which can be found at several farmers markets and farm stands across the Sunshine Coast. It brings her great joy to use ingredients from her farmer friends to produce both novel and nostalgic flavour combinations. Kelly offers ice cream science workshops to elementary school classes that walk students through the process from garden thorough to taste testing.

A workshop with Kelly will involve a foraging session on the farm and nearby Kinnikinnick Trails, hands on ice cream science, and happy campers!

Cheryl Chang

Friend of the Farm

Workshop:

Harvest & Cook with Friends

Harvest, cook, and eat with Chef Cheryl! Cheryl is a local chef and business owner, with a passion for teaching kids. We'll get inspired by our surroundings as we harvest fresh produce from the farm, gain basic food preparation and cooking skills, and make a delicious meal to enjoy together. Your kids will learn how to connect with food through their senses rather than a recipe.

We'll explore how much fun it can be to make and enjoy fresh food with friends!

Alex De Muinck

Workshops: Pickle Party & Pasta Playground

Chef Murray and Chef Alex are excited to bring their unique flair for food to Heart and Sol Farm this summer. These 2 local chefs love using seasonal ingredients, letting the flavours shine through as they create exciting products that their guests may have never tried before.

They are offering 2 different workshops on the farm this summer: Pickle Party, where we'll explore pickling and fermenting, and Pasta Playground, where we'll make fresh pasta to pair with seasonal farm-fresh ingredients. Come on a food adventure with us as we discover a diverse growing environment and learn some fun new techniques.

Hilary Prince

Friend of the Farm

Workshop:

Sweet Tooth

Hilary is a pastry chef based in Halfmoon Bay on the Sunshine Coast. With a background in science and love for all things creative and hands on, baking and pastry was a natural fit from day one. Knowing the people and places that produce our food, and understanding where our ingredients come from is a fundamental part of cooking, and one of her favourite things! We will get hands on and creative (possibly a little dirty!) on the farm to bake up some tasty treats.

Julia Booth

Friend of the Farm

Workshops:

Lantern Making & Mark Making

Julia is a Certified Expressive Arts Therapist and Registered Therapeutic Counsellor (RTC) based on the Sunshine Coast. She works with individuals in one-on-one therapy and facilitates creative workshops for schools, non-profits, and community groups.

Heather Bergh

Friend of the Farm

Workshop:

Puppets in the Pasture

Heather is a Certified Canadian Counsellor and Registered Art Therapist with over 17 years of experience supporting children, youth, and families.

Clare Wilkening

Friend of the Farm

Workshop:

Muddy Hands - Let's Play with Clay

Clare is a ceramic artist with a BSc in Environmental Science, using ceramic forms to evoke, narrate, and to respond to specific places and ecological issues. By choosing to engage with ecology as an artist instead of as a scientist, she is able to research the many topics that hold her attention and to generate work that is evocative and responsive. Bringing her work to Heart & Sol Farm is exciting, as it ties together the idea of reciprocal and regenerative care for the land, while expressing art inspired by our natural surroundings, and sharing both her vision and passion with kids in our community.
